This is the Martin Standard Series D-35, one of the quintessential Martin dreadnought guitars built of sitka spruce and rosewood, now with some refreshed features introduced to the Standard Series for 2025!
The Martin D-35 is a unique and trusted classic, first introduced in the mid-1960s and played by countless music legends ever since. Its Dreadnought body size delivers a bold, projective sound with strong bass, clear trebles, and rich overtones, making it a versatile choice for players of all styles. Handcrafted with a solid spruce top and solid East Indian rosewood back and sides, the D-35 stands out with its iconic three-piece back and lighter, non-scalloped 1/4″ bracing, offering a balanced yet powerful tone. The satin neck, featuring a Golden Era (GE) Modified Low Oval profile, high-performance taper, and 25.4″ scale length, ensures smooth, effortless playability. Complete with antique white binding, a bound ebony fingerboard with mother of pearl dot inlays, an ebony bridge with bone pins, and chrome enclosed gear tuners, the D-35 is built to carry on its legacy in your hands.
For the first time since 2018, Standard Series guitars are being slightly tweaked with a nice mix of modern and vintage-inspired features including Golden Era top bracing – which is a big improvement in overall volume and projection with nice vintage tones, there’s a thinner fretboard much like older Martin guitars with a gently beveled edge for improved comfort. We have a Golden Era modern belly bridge with bone or ebony bridge pins and an improved nut on angle transition from the fretboard to headstock. Cosmetically we’re seeing a Long Diamond neck transition and a sleeker vintage-style neck heel!
The satin-finished hardwood neck along with rounded fretboard edges make this dreadnought a breeze to play! Whether you’re rocking big chords or doing intricate flatpicking, the new D-18 Dreadnought is a Martin that you won’t want to put down.
